“Dominic was fantastic. Very communicative and responsible. Not only did he do a great job taking care of our pup, our house looked great! It was such a relief to have someone like him while we were gone. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“Margaret was great! She stayed with our two girls for a weekend- one being medically complex and needing medications at specific times. She gave us frequent updates and we knew our girls were in great hands!”
“Lauren was amazing! The dogs loved her and she kept me in the loop with updates and pictures throughout the day. Will absolutely ask Lauren to sit for the dogs again.”
“Kristen is amazing with our 3 Siberian Huskies, especially our super senior dog that is 15.5 years old. She takes of the dogs, the house and always keeps us updated. We love having her watch our dogs.”
“This is our second time using Mandy to take care of our nervous quirky rescue dog and we can not recommend her enough. I appreciate her great communication and cute images, but most of all we are grateful for the peace of mind that our girl is comfortable at home with a trusted caregiver. We plan to use Mandy again in the future!”
“Scarlett is the type of sitter you hope to find on here! They are extremely professional and communicate extremely well! Lucky I found them and will continue to book with them for my pet needs!”
“Bethany was great! She took care of my two kitties for a week, played with them and fed them while keeping my anxious self updated on how they were doing each day. She even watered my plants! Will be booking her again :)”
“Nice is amazing. Our sweet Jax seemed so comfortable with her, which put us at ease given his age and the fact that we were so far away from home. She sent a bunch of pictures and updates; we never worried once, which was so comforting. Nice treated our home and our dog as if they were hers. Next time we plan a vacation, we’re definitely contacting Nice!”
“Jennifer did a great job watching our two dogs and cat, everyone was healthy and happy when we got home. She went over and beyond to tidy up the house and make sure all was good at the end of the house-sitting stay, which we appreciated!”
“Konner did an excellent job of taking care of Nessie and my home. He came to meet Nessie ahead of time and learn about her care. He kept me informed all weekend and my home was neat and tidy when I returned. I highly recommend Konner.”
“Alex was absolutely wonderful watching my pups for a week while we were out of the country. She was very attentive to their many medical needs, respectful of my house, and great with communication, updates, & photos of my boys. Thank you Alex!!”
“We don’t have enough nice things to say about Amy. Our pup LOVES her and might even be a bit disappointed when we return home. Thank you for sharing your time with Telly!”
“April watched my pups for 5 days & did Wonderful. This is our first time leaving them and she kept my mind at ease with daily updates & pictures. I could tell my dogs adored her. Would def recommend her to friends and family as well as book her again in the future!”
“Alicia is excellent! Watched our dogs over a weekend for us and took them on multiple walks, played with them in our backyard, brushed them, and sent plenty of update of pictures so we could see how much fun they were having with her. We would love to have her watch our pups again the next time we are out of town!”
“Lilou was great with Lola, especially during the 4th of July for a night of scary fireworks. She was communicative and responsive all week. She sent pictures of Lola playing and Lola seemed to have a great time.”
“Sofia was an absolute dream! I recently adopted a 5yr old, 4.5lbs chihuahua mix and he’s scared of new people. She had him giving her kisses and snuggling in no time. My larger dog absolutely loved her too. Her knowledge and care are so so appreciated. Will definitely be hiring her again! Thanks, Sofi!!! ❤️”
“Cassie was great with our 2 huskies. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She took great care of our place too. We will definitely be using her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arvada
Sam was an amazing house sitter and took great care of Rocky and Luna! He was able to help us in a very short notice and we are so grateful for him. He also had exceptional communication with photos every day, and took the dogs on a walk every day (which is not easy with my two huskies). 10/10 experience, thank you Sam!
Ali did a wonderful job caring for our senior chihuahua and anxious aussie mix. She kept us updated daily and was direct about her schedule to reassure us when she would be home with our pups or at work, which we really appreciate! Would 100% recommend her to stay with your fur fam. 🙂
Mia was the best house sitter! She cared for my dogs like they were her own and even needed to take one of them to the vet and again just treated her like she was her own. I got updates with pictures twice a day and it was such peace of mind knowing they were safe and happy the whole time I was gone. She asked all the questions during the meet and greet and was so thorough in her intake and confirmed anything she had questions on. Would recommend her to literally anyone looking for a sitter, she’s the best!
It was my first overnight rover experience, and Michelle put me at ease instantly during our meet and greet. She also sent encouraging messages and adorable photos while I was gone. I came home to a happy and relaxed pup, which only solidified that I would definitely book with Michelle again! 💚
I would recommend Emily 1000%. She took great care of our dog and shared updates throughout the day. I never had to worry. I appreciate the communication and amazing customer service. Being new in town with no one to watch our dog was very stressful, and Emily made it easy for us. Can’t thank her enough!
Kelly stayed with our two high-energy German short haired pointers for a week and everything went great! She checked in with us frequently and sent photos and video so we knew our dogs were in good hands. She also asked questions when she wasn’t sure of their preferences or routine. We’ll be glad to have Kelly as a sitter again!
Kate is amazing! She provided pictures and updates as well as asked good questions as she took care of Scout for the first time! I could tell he was happy and excited with her, I came home to a clean house and a very settled pup! Highly recommend Kate and will for sure book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Arvada
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Arvada on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,867 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arvada. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arvada walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arvada maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Arvada choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
